Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox mountain Hisar Range (Шаблон:Lang-tg; Шаблон:Lang-uz, Шаблон:Lang-ru; Шаблон:Lang-uk; Шаблон:Lang-fa; also known as Hissar, Hisor, or Gissar Range) is a mountain range in Central Asia, in the western part of the Pamir-Alay system, stretching over 200 km in the general east–west direction across the territory of Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

Geography

The Hisar Range lies south of the Zarafshon Range, extending north of Dushanbe through Tajikistan's Hissar District of the Districts of Republican Subordination and reaching Uzbekistan at the north tip of Surxondaryo Region.[1] The highest point in the Hissar Range at Шаблон:Convert is located in Uzbekistan on the border with Tajikistan, just north-west of Dushanbe. Formerly known as Peak of the 22nd Congress of the Communist Party, the Khazret Sultan is also the highest point in all Uzbekistan. The Hissar Range is composed of crystalline rocks, schist, and sandstone, punctured by granite intrusions.[2]

Nature

Hissor Valley, which encompasses the Shirkent National Park is a Шаблон:Convert reserve, which is expected to be expanded to some Шаблон:Convert in the coming years, has an unusually high concentration of sites of historical and scientific interest.[3]
